We can sometimes harbor romantic illusions about what the Church should be like, a company of saints in shining armor!
But then we meet some local congregation, and we become disillusioned.
It is never a good thing to live with illusions.
The reality about the Church is much more splendid.

It is among this frail, struggling, sinful community of folk that we find heroes and heroines of the faith who outshine and outshame those whom the world admires for their power, their wealth, and their strength.
The gospel speaks its word of liberation, not through the powerful but through the oppressed. May God make us humble enough to receive it from them. Read Hebrews 11:7
